Synopsis
Revenge of the Lawn is a book of short stories written by the American author Richard Brautigan from 1962-1970. Like most of Brautigan's works, the stories are whimsical, simply themed, and often surreal. Many of the stories were originally published elsewhere. The book also contains two missing chapters from his work Trout Fishing in America, Rembrandt Creek and Carthage Sink.
